Okay.... So dig, I been pleading my case for days
Trying to get my lady to see it my way
But NOOOOOOOOO, all she can think of is marriage
Im like yo I feel, ya but lets slow down this carriage
Cause I love you.....and that aint no lie
But for the past couple of months we aint had the sweetest tasting pie

See me being a brotha, I just want solidity
You know,not like last month or the month before,
In which you tried to get rid of me.

I know you say I don t love you enough to make a life long sacrifice
But baby it aint a sacrifice its like a death sentence if things arent right
And your slammin me, bashing, thinking Im less of a man
Just because Im man enough to say timings not right to take your hand.

An you'll be the first to admit
I dont stay out, late, argue, cheat or none of that snit.
But you'll put to me....... either I get married or thats its!

Well baby I cant do it, unless we're on common ground
No need to rush, Im not leaving, Ill stick around
Only to make sure what we have is solid
You know, secure our future remains valid.

Cause haste makes waste and I refuse to cheat you like this
I know, your such and such age, and everyone you know is doing it
I just want you to understand this is for the better
If the preacher wants to bag on me then let her!

So you see this as a rejection
And its simply not the case
I see this a protection
and building a firm base.

Skip it baby I love you can you please stay.................
Her response was " HUH cute but later gator theres just know other way!
Im out and I hope you find solidity, to bad you missed out
and it wont be with me!

So now I learn loves hard lesson,
If the womens ready, and your not
These days you better count your blessin

I still had to telll her though, marriage doesnt measure love
And hopefully you dont learn this the hard way, but if you ever need a shoulder I be there night or day!
